 Here is a period style house you will be comfortable in. Modeled on 18th century Dutch prototypes this gambrel roof colonial style home has a pine paneled fireplace wall in a large living room, immaculately finished pine board floors, naturally finished molded pine trim, central hall and stairway.

Yet it has all the contemporary conveniences:  an invitingly large kitchen replete with cherry cabinetwork, granite countertops, large island with glass cooktop, large refrigerator/freezer, double wall ovens and dishwasher (all stainless steel). Out the double door is the morning breakfast patio, on the other side, the evening dinner patio.  

Up-to-date bathrooms with granite, tile and sparkling fixtures. The dining room overlooks flower beds and extensive lawns, the woods as backdrop. There is one more room which you will purpose to your liking as library, family room,  or office.

Upstairs is a large master bedroom suite with private bathroom, two other bedrooms and ample closets. A three-bay attached garage has an apartment above with kitchen area and bathroom, finish to your own design.

But that is not all. If someone in your family has a yen for riding, the property comes with two horse barns, fenced full-size riding arena and pasture.  The main barn is built in the Dutch style with gable-end entrances and long sloping roof which works well for a central aisle, four box stalls and tack room with saddle racks and bridle hooks. The loft  can handle 600+ bales of hay. The smaller barn also has four box stalls.  Want to meet others? This is the region of the Old Chatham Hunt Club and there is a World Class trainer a short hack away.  Not into horses yet? You now have appropriately-looking secure storage on your own property. Or a workshop or studio.

And there is more. Cunningham Hill is in the township of Canaan in northeast Columbia County. This is really convenient for getting to ski slopes, Tanglewood, Jacob's Pillow, summer stock theater, museums and so many other pleasures in adjacent (the other end of Cunningham Hill Road) Berkshire County.  Saratoga is within an hour; the Capital District and much of Columbia County are within a half hour.  A bonus - you have lake rights to spring-fed Queechy Lake for boating, swimming and sunning.  And you are not far from the Taconic Parkway to NYC. You can't be more convenient for all these attractions.
